You can do all the three with Global Development Association （GDA）. Whatever stage of life you're at, wherever you go and whatever project you do in GDA you'll create positive changes in a poor and remote community（社区）。‎ We work with volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. Most of our volunteers are aged 17-24. Now we need volunteer managers aged. 25-75. They are extremely important in the safe and effective running of our programs. We have such roles as project managers, mountain leaders, and communication officers.‎ Depending on which role you choose you could help to increase a community's access to safe drinking water, or help to protect valuable local cultures. You might also design an adventure challenge to train young volunteers. ‎ Not only will you help our young volunteers to develop personally you'll also learn new skills and increase your cultural awareness. You may have chances to meet new people who'll become your lifelong friends. ‎ This summer we have both 4-week and 7-week programs:‎ Country Schedule ‎4-week programs ‎7-week programs Algeria ‎5 Jul.…1 Aug.‎ ‎20 Jun.…7 Aug.‎ Egypt ‎24 Jul.---20 Aug.‎ ‎19 Jun.— 6 Aug.‎ Kenya ‎20 Jul.—16 Aug.‎ ‎18 Jun.— 5 Aug.‎ South Africa ‎2 Aug.---29 Aug.‎ ‎15 Jun.--- 2 Aug.‎ GDA ensures that volunteers work with community members and local project partners where our help is needed. All our projects aim to promote the development of poor and remote communities.‎ There is no other chance like a GDA program. Join us as a volunteer manager to develop your own skills while bringing benefits to the communities.‎ Find out more about joining a GDA program:‎ Website: www. glodeve.org Email: humanresources@glodeve.org 1. What is the main responsibility of volunteer managers? A. To seek local partners. B. To take in young volunteers. C. To carry out programs. D. To foster cultural awareness.‎ 2. The program beginning in August will operate in . A. Egypt B. Algeria C. Kenya D. South Africa 3. The shared goal of GDA's projects is to . A. explore new cultures B. protect the environment C. gain corporate benefits D. help communities in need B Dear Dad,‎ Today, I spent a lot of time selecting and reading the Father's Day cards at the shopping mall. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really ‎ wanted to say to you.‎ You'll soon be 84 years old. Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day, but I've always been with you in my heart. You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.‎ The Father-Daughter Conflict shifted into high gear（档位）when you taught me to drive the old Dodge while I decided I would drive the Chevy whether you liked it or not. To my surprise, when the police officer sent me home after you reported the Chevy stolen, you were so tolerant（宽容的）about it because I had thought that would probably be the worst night of my life.‎ Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.‎ But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the comer in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and weak behind the wheel of that huge car. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.‎ I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's my wish that it never had to end.‎ I love you, Dad.‎ Love,‎ ‎ Jenny 1. How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police? A. Guilty. B. Nervous. C. Frightened. D. Disappointed.‎ 2. We can learn from the text that Jenny and her father________. A. have been getting along very well B. kept in touch by writing to each other C. are separated due to the generation gap D. had a hard time understanding each other 3. Why did Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week? A. She didn't expect to meet with him there. B. She seldom saw him driving that huge car. C. She had never realized his being old and weak. D. She had never seen him driving so slowly before.‎ 4. Jenny wrote his father this letter to___________. A. express her gratitude to him B. tell him about their conflicts C. say sorry for her being stubborn D. remind him of the early incident C Eudaimonia is an ancient Greek word, particularly stressed by the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, which deserves far more attention than it has because it corrects the ‎ shortfalls （缺失）in one of the most central, but troubling words in our modem language: happiness.‎ When we nowadays try to clearly express the purpose of our lives, it is the word "happiness" that we commonly turn to. We tell ourselves and others that the most important principle for our jobs, our relationships and the conduct of our day-to-day lives is the pursuit of happiness. It sounds like an innocent enough idea, but too much reliance on the term means that we frequently unfairly tend to quit or, at least, heavily question a great many challenging but worthwhile situations. The ancient Greeks did not believe that the purpose of life was to be happy; they proposed that it was to achieve Eudaimonia, a word which has been translated as “fulfillment".‎ V/hat distinguishes happiness from fulfillment is pain. It is very possible to be fulfilled and — at the same time--- under pressure, suffering physically or mentally, overburdened and , quite frequently, in an irritable（易 怒的）mood. This is a slight psychological difference that is hard for the word "happiness" to capture, for it's tricky to speak of being happy yet unhappy, or happy yet suffering. However, such a combination is easily accepted within the respected and noble-sounding idea of Eudaimonia.‎ The word encourages us to trust that many of life's most worthwhile projects will sometimes be in conflict with contentment, and yet will be worth pursuing. Properly exploring our professional talents, managing a household, keeping a relationship going, creating a new business venture or engaging in politics... none of these goals are likely to leave us cheerful and grinning on a daily basis. They will, in fact, involve us in all manner of challenges that will deeply exhaust and weaken us, provoke（激怒）and wound us. And yet we will perhaps, at the end of our lives, still feel that the tasks were worth undertaking. Through them, we'll have achieved something deeper and more interesting than happiness.‎ With the word Eudaimonia in mind, we can stop imagining that we are aiming for a pain-free existence— and then blaming ourselves unfairly for being in a bad mood. We will know that we are trying to do something for more important than smile all the time: we're striving to do justice to our full human potential.‎ 1. What do we know about “Eudaimonia " from the passage? A. It was first created by two Greek philosophers B. It has received a lot of attention from the public. C. It still has some shortfalls that need to be corrected. D. It was regarded as the purpose of life in ancient Greece.‎ 2. According to Paragraph 3, happiness________. A. is the opposite of fulfillment B. is free from physical or mental pain C. stresses the psychological difference D. serves as a respected and noble life goal 3. We can learn from the passage that________. A. aiming for happiness may lead to wrong self-blaming B. goals that wound and weaken us result in happiness C. challenges leading to contentment are worth undertaking D.‎ ‎ feeling fulfilled means we should avoid tough situations 1. The passage encourages the readers to________. A. find fulfillment with all efforts B. seek for a pain-free existence C. keep optimistic whatever happens D. balance happiness and suffering D A scientist turned out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she dealt with it. Some children reached eagerly for the candy they saw. Some lasted a few minutes before they gave in. But others were determined to wait until the last moment.‎ By the time the children reached high school, something amazing had happened. A survey found that those who were four-year-olds having enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation（诱惑）early were more likely to be lonely, easily upset and inflexible.‎ Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test.‎ The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists' concerns. But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant（有抵抗力的）soul.‎ Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people's success, brain ability measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as "characters".‎ EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together and how one's ability handles stress, for instance, affecting the ability to concentrate and putting intelligence to use. Among the ingredients（要素）for success, researchers now gradually agree that IQ counts for about 20%, the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.‎ While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues are finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.‎ 2. Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text? A. To make the readers amused. B. To prove the scientists* wisdom. C. To introduce the topic of the text. D. To show us how to do an IQ test.‎ 3. The experiment with the four-year-olds shows us that___________. A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment B. the ability of sell-control plays a role in personal success C. emotional intelligence won't show up until teen years D. candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence 4. The underlined word "upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means___________. A. positive B. negative C. impatient D. friendly 5. From the passage we learn that___________. A. EQ does not have any connection with IQ B.‎ ‎ the higher a person's IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is C. brain theory is able to explain what we wonder about most D. scientists haven't discovered the way EQ and IQ work together.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to improve a bad attitude There are different types of bad attitudes, including the drama queen type, the silent type and the habitual complainer. 36 . Improving your bad attitude will contribute to being much happier and healthier.‎ Look on the brighter side of things. Stop telling yourself that things always go wrong for you. Try telling yourself things are better and will continue to get better. 37 There is always a brighter side to things.‎ Appreciate everything you have. Do not take anything for granted. 38 Do not worry about things you want and cannot have. Focus on what you actually do have. Wishing for something you may never get will only make you depressed and may result in a poor attitude.‎ Fix things that you can. 39 For example, if you are down because you do not like your job, start looking for a new one. Move on and do not worry for long periods of time on things that are out of your control. Deal with problems in the present, and if they cannot be fixed, let them go. Find something you can be happy about.‎ ‎ 40 You will give a more positive impression to others, and they will likely smile back.
